Free WiFi touchdown @ Hotel 41.

Hotel 41 offers no holds barred boutique luxury in a discreet top-floor setting

Across the road from the Royal Mews at Buckingham Palace is Hotel 41 - a free WiFi 5 star boutique London hotel which has been at or near the top of the Tripadvisor charts for quite a while thanks to its flawless service and stylish retro design.  We recently visited to test its promise of free WiFi.

Hotel 41, just like the Rubens at the Palace which we also recently visited for a similar free WiFi touchdown, is part of Red Carnation Hotels - where staff are famous for their ”tiny noticeable touches” designed to make guests feel at home from the moment they arrive.

Our primary focus this visit was the WiFi given how many so-called luxury hotels charge extra for this basic amenity.  Hotel 41′s management understands that the internet is essential for luxury travellers and told us they wouldn’t dream of inconveniencing their guests in this way.

The hotel lounge is exclusive to hotel guests with free WiFi and "raid the pantry" snacks

The hotel specialises in meeting pretty much any request.  In the past they’ve managed to source rare types of foreign chocolate for guests and arrange accommodation for favourite pets to name a couple of examples.

Staff at Hotel 41 delight in going the extra mile to ensure guests’ wishes come true, even specialising in arranging unique wedding proposals as we recently blogged about to do their utmost to help lovestruck future grooms get the right answer from their prospective brides!

The captivating black and white theme helps to make Hotel 41 stand out as one of London's most stylish boutique hotels

The luxurious bedrooms are decorated in signature black and white with the unlimited free WiFi available throughout the hotel.  But the luxury freebies don’t stop there.  Guests can help themselves to complimentary snacks and drinks in the lounge and Hotel 41 currently also offers complimentary afternoon tea with stays of two or more nights.

Each room also comes with a resident Huggie Bear available for adoption with an Adoption Certificate sealed with a Teddy Bear Adoption Agency ribbon!  By adopting Huggie, guests can support the Starlight Children’s Foundation which is dedicated to brightening the days of seriously and terminally ill children by granting wishes in hospitals across the UK.

Overall our afternoon testing the WiFi at Hotel 41 went splendidly and the WiFi itself was as flawless as the staff’s attention to detail and service.  They even brought us some homemade goodies and cakes to thoroughly spoil us while we worked.  It’s no wonder that TripAdvisor users currently rate Hotel 41 the number 1 hotel in London (from 1069 London hotels) - you can read the latest guest comments here.
